Did you notice that this Matchbox restoration episode; also revamped my memory of when, Katherine and Corey Chrysler used to live on the corner of Rodriguez Street and 7th Avenue? I'm not kidding you, it did. It's about when they used to own a 1950s black pickup truck, or even a 1950s black 2 door sedan with red hub caps and white wall tires. It's right next to where the old SPCA is. I've rode past there many times before.
What the hell. I've been watching this channel for about 2 hours, and I don't even really care about Hot Wheels or Matchbox. This is some serious skill and dedication. Thanks for sharing your awesome work with us.
Man, I really wish there was more of a market for vintage Hot Wheels/Die Casts in my country so I could get into this hobby. Oh and I really like the outcome of this customization.
Why do you need a market for a hobby? Passion isn't about profit. I've been into scale models for close to 30 years and i can promise you that selling them is the LAST thing i think about. I do what i do because i love doing it,it's challenging,it hones my skills,it forces creativity and keeps me out of the bars. If i can turn a profit from it then that's just some extra icing on my cake. The resources are there for you to start. If people dig your work then YOU'LL create the market for yourself.
Joris, er zijn altijd oude matchbox, majorette en siku auto's.. als je goed zoekt kun je ook wel vintage hotwheels vinden.. probeer is op rommelmarkten etc. rond te kijken.. er is genoeg.. en een markt voor die-cast in het algemeen is er ook wel, er zijn namelijk speciaalzaakjes.. webshops.. etc.. gisteren heb ik in de lidl (van alle winkels) 2 Gasmonkey Corvettes gevonden :D
I really appreciate the effort you put into the interior. Even though you can only really glimpse it through the windows, it really amplifies the vibe of the car. Not just the realism, but the Gothic atmosphere. Awesome job.
This came out fantastic! The laser cut masks worked well for the skulls since I see they tend to be a little rough around the edges. I really liked the multiple steps of painting you used to achieve the final result. I also especially liked the detail on the interior! You have given me lots of great tips and ideas in this video. Thank you! 👍🏻
Nice! That little added touch makes the back deck not look like plastic anymore, and really upped the ante on realism. Before you put the gloss coat on the seats I thought "hey, that almost looks like fabric!". I get the point though, "scale textures using paints only" is a rough spot. I'm sure you'll figure it out!
I have been following your videos since the last month and I must say you have skills sir.. I am impressed with all your work. My childhood has completely revolved around Hotwheels and i remember doing tweeks and changes in the paint myself. But you took it at a totally different level. Good luck to you. Keep doing better and keep inspiring youngsters.
Excellent custom! Looks real good! Love it. Yes more Airbrush videos. I'm sure you've decanted a spray can before for Airbrush. Can you do a video showing that and say how you clean your Airbrush? My poor Airbrush is dead right now with old white spray paint. Always a pleasure to watch your videos 👍🏽
I've watched your other vids on paintbrush techniques as you have released them but I'd love to see more. As an analytical person, I always end up with more questions than answers and I usually find those answers in the details/fine print...
I started watching your videos last month, more so because I was confused at how you could be so involved in something like this than any actual personal interest in custom cars. I'm slowing starting to get it and I love your channel! Keep it up. Btw I think your MadMax cars are amazing. :)
Was not expecting that, you outdid yourself on this one, my good man. Lazer engraver? Didn't see that coming. You have alot invested in what you do. Keep up the awesome work.
Nice job. Those skulls are great fun!! Back in the day, 40+ years ago, we had one guy at our slot car racing club who would hand paint mad stuff onto the inside of lexan 1/32nd scale body shells. His own race cars were always detailed, even showing sponsor decals etc. On one shell he even produced a fair copy of the Yes album Relayer cover art, with cave detail, snake and everything. I guess he was glad we didn't race 1/64th scale!
I've watched several of your videos and was always impressed by your work and mods and it impresses me every time I click on a video and it's a mod that's better than the last!
This is my favorite die cast resto/custom channel by a long shot! No one else is coming up so such a great variety of methods, and new ways of customizing! I really appreciate your effort and the details you provide. Thanks for inspiring this old sumbitch to become reinvigorated and excited about the hobby! Jack Canada
My anonymous friend: The artistic talent and modesty of the work here is at the highest level of quality. The painting and application of the skulls was superb. The result is not my personal favorite for this car, since I am a former owner of a 1965 Lincoln Continental. JFK was assassinated in a 1963 model.
I would drive this best if it was 1 to 1 ratio my man. sickness in the art you have created. Please keep up to the attention to detail and customs. Love this.
This dude says he has little to no artistic talent...I call bullshit...thats top shelf work brother...the shading on the skulls is sick!!!!! As always well done!!!! 👍👍👍
WOW this is a great VIDEO. . . I will have to try this! I love hot wheels and have a ton that could use this treatment! Looks like you have great talent to me! Thanks for a great video! You make it look easier that I net it really is.
"artistic skill, of which I have very little"
proceeds to produce the most bad ass professionally painted car I have ever seen

Same. I'm not into diecast at all- I'm an aircraft modeler- but this guy has some skills, and I enjoy that regardless of genre
Paul Casey got mad skills and if you do any mini,painting or war gaming, info transfers. otherwise just coolness
Paul Casey agreed!
Same here, restoration/customization videos are so addictive >_
Paul Casey Then why watch it ?
*I'm not gonna lie, I'd drive this in real life.*
Duncan F. who wouldn't?
Dylan Lockman me, I'd prefer a gloss black. But it's absolutely amazing for a die cast!
I don't think you'd fit in it
H8_RICE a man can dream
You drive a Lincoln?
Man, I really wish there was more of a market for vintage Hot Wheels/Die Casts in my country so I could get into this hobby.
Oh and I really like the outcome of this customization.
Did you try ebay ?

eyy iemand uit nederland
Joris Van Wijk yep
I really appreciate the effort you put into the interior. Even though you can only really glimpse it through the windows, it really amplifies the vibe of the car. Not just the realism, but the Gothic atmosphere. Awesome job.
How is it you have not yet been hired on by Mattel as a design consultant? You can bring the Hot Wheels line to a whole other level!
Cuz ain't nobody can do it like him
Soul Reaper7364 and they cheap af
Mass produce... yikes not even he would want to do that
Each one of your customizations is a joy to watch, love what you did with the interior!
One of the best restomods I’ve seen anywhere. Beautiful result.
This might be my favorite custom you've done!
Without a doubt. The best customization of a HotWheels/Matchbox I've ever seen.
Well Done!

This might be your best one so far. I really love it!
Looks great! Thank you for the video
One of your best pieces. Absolutely awesome work
This is incredible. You do excellent work and know just how to pace these videos.
I found this channel like a month ago and now it is one of my favourites on youtube. Your voice is so relaxing and watching you work is so satisfying
Beautiful work, that's a real gem.
This jumped to the top of my list as one of my fav's of yours. Great idea and execution!

One of the best examples.of super creative expert paint work yet. Well done my man!
L👀KS Awesome! I would enjoy watching an airbrush tutorial on 1/64 diecast.
Excellent custom! Looks real good! Love it.
Yes more Airbrush videos. I'm sure you've decanted a spray can before for Airbrush. Can you do a video showing that and say how you clean your Airbrush?
My poor Airbrush is dead right now with old white spray paint. Always a pleasure to watch your videos 👍🏽
keep up the amazing work, love to see interesting forms of art
One of my favorite restores ever.. great job
Nice interior!!! Looking foward to see more of it.
Yes, more air-brush technique videos, please! Excellent work with this one - keep it up.
One of your finest works yet
I've watched your other vids on paintbrush techniques as you have released them but I'd love to see more. As an analytical person, I always end up with more questions than answers and I usually find those answers in the details/fine print...
WOW! That thing looks AMAZING!
Very inspiring... can't wait to get working on some myself.

That finished Continental looks fantastic, love the leather seats effect....
Your work on the interior plastic is fantastic
Friggin' awesome!! Inspired to start collecting again after all of these years!
Was not expecting that, you outdid yourself on this one, my good man. Lazer engraver? Didn't see that coming. You have alot invested in what you do. Keep up the awesome work.

Awesome job - really liked the way it turned out.

Would be awesome to see a larger scale model car where you can put more details. Nice work!
That looks absolutely amazing
Continental 64! My favorite hot wheels model!
Simply stunning, I love it.
This is seriously the coolest car I have seen on here yet !

I say this 100% loving your Mad Max customs but this is possibly my favorite custom you have done so far.

Car looks good and the extra work on the interior definitely improves the look
Probably one of the best ones I've seen you do
Looks amazing, a grand job 👍
wow, it looks fantastic! Great work with the skulls.
You are a master hotwheels customizer
Interesting techniques, cool results.
Could you do an off-road vehicle next! Maybe a bronco or a grand cherokee
Ysaac 06 Harbobné or just take any car and give it a lift kit... something dumb like a gtr or a mustang
Haha, I'd like to see that!
Awesome work
You're work is always great and this one was especially wonderful!
usually I'd get bored from watching this
but your voice makes these videos really interesting
Good show my friend! Brilliant work!
That car turned out beautiful!
This is simply awesome man!
I think this is one of your best. not sure about the suggestions about the interior, but that interior did turn out great!

Really intricate. Good job. I had no idea people have so much passion for hotwheels?
I would love to see videos about your airbrush (etc) setup, uses and techniques
I would drive this best if it was 1 to 1 ratio my man. sickness in the art you have created. Please keep up to the attention to detail and customs. Love this.
